I do not get reception while driving along Arden Avenue, Huguenot Ave. or Bloomingdale Road. Also, coming down Grymes Hill I completely lose reception. Near / In Woodrow Plaza there is zero service. There is probably a bunch more I can think of. Nextel / Sprint is TERRIBLE.

From Rockland Ave all the way down to the end of Hylan Blvd.there is no cell reception and I have had various cell phones T-Mobile, Cingular just to name a few. Someone else mentioned Richmond Terrace I live near there on Heberton ave and never had a problem with reception the only time I do is when the weather is extremely bad

No one on my block can get a decent cell signal at all. We live right by the SI Railroad and it gets better when I go out infront of my house away from the rails but otherwise I can't get anything. Even wireless networks I try to hop on are skiddish. Will it ever change?

If your driving on Victory Blvd.from Bay St. till about Jewett the reception is pretty bad you can probably go the whole ride and pick up and drop signals about 5 times before you get a real steady signal for a 1 minute conversation.

Cingular and AT&T, they share networks; you just need a 2 mode cellular (using 850 MHz and 1,900 MHz bands).

Nextel is horrendous for this location, zero reception. Their answer is that we are on a bubble i.e. convergence of three towers and there is nothing that they can do.

Cingular does not have any reception at wellbrook ave. Once I move towards bradley ave, it starts getting 1-2 bars. There is a problem in this block with all carriers, but others atleast work to some extent.

Frequently no reception. Ironically I often visit SW Virginia and West Virginia where the recpetion is perfect ( far away in the Appalachian Mountains) yet in the world's hub one cannot carry on a cellphone conversation. In addition I have filed with Verizon who has never provided any insight.

Nextel, terrible service if any in Staten Island, NY around the college. Nextel really doesn't care for individual customers, there concerns are for business. Also many dead spots in NJ along the Garden State Parkway. You can drive from NY down to AC and listen to your Nextell drop in and out of service. Or make a call and have the person on the other end tell you to use a pay phone instead because they are tired of trying to understand you because you drop in and out... ..

This seems to be the worst area on the island. I drive 45 minutes each way to and from work and a majority of my journey is made with no service.

It's a shame that in this day and age, I can't use my cell phone. Nextel has been absolutely the worst cell carrier I have ever used! And what makes matters worst is that Nextel CS could care less about me not being able to make and receive calls. If your looking for a new Cell provider, I suggest you ask as many people as possible in and around your area for ther opinions.
